Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 298 Study The Interspatial Bag

“Bam…”

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Wu Hanning saw Ou Yangming sitting in the middle of the room. Judging from the way he looked at that moment, she immediately knew he was observing the interspatial bag.

She blushed right away and gritted her teeth as she reached out to snatch the bag from Ou Yangming’s hands.

Wu Hanning attacked at the speed of light, but just as her slender hand was about to grab the interspatial bag, Ou Yangming flashed. It was as though he predicted it, and he dodged her palm nimbly.

The princess was slightly stunned, and her eyes instantly looked fierce.

It was worth noting that she was incredibly sharp-eyed, hence she assessed Ou Yangming’s martial arts cultivation base when they first met.

The peak of Yin Grade Class Five was considered extremely rare for a young fellow like Ou Yangming. Nonetheless, Wu Hanning was the number one genius in the imperial family—the Wu family—as she was already in Yang Grade Class Three. Although her ultimate trump card was not her martial arts cultivation base, the fact that she failed to sneak an attack on a martial artist in Yin Grade Class Five was…

At that point, the normally proud Wu Hanning finally suppressed her arrogance and treated Ou Yangming with respect.

Without any hesitation, a chill could be seen in Wu Hanning’s eyes. She cast aside her shyness and frustration, then she entered an exceedingly calm state, as well as the supreme state of the integration of Heaven and man.

Ou Yangming’s every move entered Wu Hanning’s mind like images. She later turned around and somersaulted skillfully as if she became weightless, then she reached out for the interspatial bag once more.

This time, she gave her all and was confident she would succeed.

Who knew, Ou Yangming shrank away strangely and evaded her with the indescribable posture as though he anticipated her move again.

Wu Hanning felt a chill in her heart, and she almost cried out involuntarily.

‘How can this young fella be faster than me?!’

Nevertheless, Wu Hanning’s palm crossed paths with the interspatial bag at the next instant. The moment she thought she was going to miss the opportunity once again, Ou Yangming stretched out his arm and happened to extend the bag out.

Wu Hanning hooked her palm around the interspatial bag without thinking and clutched it at once.

By exerting a little force through the tip of her toes, she jumped to the door and cast a complicated look at Ou Yangming. On the other hand, the young fellow looked baffled, and he looked so wronged that one could not find fault with him at all.

Despite having seized the interspatial bag, given that Wu Hanning was a formidable figure, he naturally knew she did not succeed because of her own strength; it was only because Ou Yangming made it easier for her. ‘This fella personally returned it to me.

‘If my martial arts cultivation base is lower or my spiritual sense is weaker, perhaps I won’t be able to spot the loophole.’

Wu Hanning stood still and looked at Ou Yangming fiercely. Her eyes were as sharp as blades, causing one to have goosebumps.

Ou Yangming scratched his head and looked bewildered. “Young Lady Wu, what are you doing? Didn’t we agree on an hour? I don’t think the time is up yet, is it?”

“Have you opened the interspatial bag?” Wu Hanning asked word by word.

“It’s my first time getting in touch with one, and I was trying to open it. I was going to succeed when you suddenly barg… Uhm, in any case, I was just one step away from opening it.” Ou Yangming looked wronged, and he added after a pause, “Young Lady Wu, you can just tell me if you don’t want to show it to me, but please don’t play tricks.”

Wu Hanning was dumbfounded, and she was somehow relieved. “Did you really not open

it?”

SW

“Of course not,” Ou Yangming answered without any delay. “Master Ou, please forgive me. I suddenly recalled that I left some secret treasures from my clan in the interspatial bag, and they mustn’t be leaked, so please wait a while,” Wu Hanning explained after some thought, then she nodded and left. She returned to her accommodation and withdrew her undergarments and clothes.

She flushed when she looked at the clothes.

After getting back her natal longsword, Wu Hanning was completely drawn to it, so she forgot about this. Fortunately, Ou Yangming had not opened the interspatial bag and did not see the items, or she would be absolutely embarrassed.

She later made another check to confirm that there were no other taboo items inside the bag. Even though there were several life-saving treasures, none of them could be compared with her natal sword.

‘If Ou Yangming really wants them, he can have them.’

Following that, Wu Hanning turned around with a smile and returned to the smithing room, where she gave the bag to Ou Yangming and restarted the one hour.

However, not long after she left the room cheerfully, her face slowly darkened.

She suddenly thought of a problem, ‘Why did Ou Yangming return the interspatial bag to me on purpose? Besides, while his expression isn’t flawed, he didn’t seem resentful at all.

‘If I was in his shoes and someone played a trick on me, how can I just let it be? Not to mention returning the interspatial bag calmly.’

Wu Hanning stomped her foot. She was abashed and furious. ‘That b*stard has a death wish!’

Even so, she stopped right after she turned around. ‘If I return and make a fuss out of it, I won’t have a place to put my feet on.’

As Wu Hanning took a deep breath and bit her lower lip, her body shivered. It was then when an indescribable feeling rose from the bottom of her heart, causing her face to redden, and she could not remain calm anymore.

Ou Yangming gently closed the door and was secretly glad.

Fortunately, he reacted fast and played it by ear, where he neither messed up the pile of clothes nor looked at them for too long. The young fellow admired himself even more because he was well-prepared when he first noticed Wu Hanning’s purpose of return, by which he planned to return the interspatial bag in this way. If that was not the case, more events would have taken place if the matter was delayed any longer. Ou Yangming focused on his mind again. Sure enough, practice made perfect; he was a few times faster than before when he opened the interspatial bag for the second time.

It almost took him a brief moment to open the bag. Needless to say, he was still far from Wu Hanning, who could open the bag in a second.

When Ou Yangming entered the interspatial bag with his mental conception, he noticed that the small space was only the size of a cubic meter.

As expected, the clothes were gone. He sighed a breath of relief, but deep down he was slightly dejected. There was so little cloth, so how can they be worn? I can’t figure it out…’

That said, he quickly curbed his restless mind and focused on the interspatial bag.

Many rare and wonderful items were found in the bag, such that Ou Yangming noticed many runes too. The runes released surging aura, and while they could not be released due to the interspatial bag, the young fellow could tell from his conception that they were immensely dangerous.

Wu Hanning was worthy of being a disciple from the imperial family as her foundation was unimaginably profound. Though Ou Yangming had numerous trump cards, if he were to have a life-or-death battle with the imperial family’s favored daughter, he would not be confident about being victorious.

Putting aside their cultivation bases and combat powers, their pieces of equipment would play huge parts in the fight.

Even if Ou Yangming had a magic tool, he dared not say he could defeat Wu Hanning.

Of course, as many treasures there were in the interspatial bag, they had nothing to do with Ou Yangming, so he merely took a glance at them. Regardless of the supreme treasures, he must not be moved.

This was because what truly attracted Ou Yangming was not the treasures but the interspatial bag itself.

His mental conception kept circulating in the bag as he particularly paid attention to the space’s limit.

Ou Yangming searched the space bit by bit, not letting go of any clues at all. At last, he found some nodes.

It was rune-an exceptionally unique Space Rune. A cultivator like him could not come across a rune like that, and even if he possessed great mental power, he could not grasp the powerful rune’s structure.

Having said that, Ou Yangming had the Military Fire. Once he focused on studying the rune’s structure, the purple fire in his sea of consciousness burned vigorously.

A peculiar power filled the spread and formed a distinctive protective network in his body.

The Military Fire was an instinctive behavior, and it existed to serve its owner as it was a special power that belonged to the owner.

Ou Yangming was able to accomplish everything he did because of the Military Fire’s various wonders.

Unknowingly, Ou Yangming began to withdraw his mental conception. During the process, he was overwhelmed with joy, similar to Wu Hanning when she was openly and exceedingly elated about attaining her perfect natal sword.

Finally, Ou Yangming opened his eyes, which glowed in unparalleled lusters.

‘Ah, this is how an interspatial bag should be refined!’

He was absolutely confident that he could produce an interspatial bag of the same scale.

Oh, perhaps the bag’s quality would be slightly inferior, but it would not lack too much.

This was his confidence.

Ou Yangming exhaled deeply and opened the door, but instead of Wu Hanning, a beautiful maidservant stood outside.

She bowed at Ou Yangming and said, “Master Ou, the young lady asked that you return the item to her if you’re done studying it.”

“Where’s Young Lady Wu?” Ou Yangming furrowed his eyebrows.

“The young lady’s resting, so please don’t disturb her if it isn’t an urgent matter.”

Ou Yangming felt guilty for some reason, and he handed the interspatial bag to the maidservant right away. Seeing as she left with a straight face, he began to ponder.

‘Why did Wu Hanning suddenly become so indifferent? Did I… Expose something?’

A chill gushed up from his heart all of a sudden, causing a shiver to run through his body.
